Wow. Remarkable results.. I am ready to do this!! Come on approval..

I am almost 3 months post op and I have lost 23 pounds and I'm in Onederland now..Yah...It's not as fast as you would think but it is worth the effort of learning how to control your eating and protein intake. I am still learning and making mistakes but not nearly as many as before the surgery. It's a day by day status. good luck..

I had surgery a week ago today. Since I started the process 20 days ago I have lost a total of 15 pounds!

My surgery was 8/19/11 staring weight 248 lbs. as of this morning 208.4 and really hoping "and working out" to give myself a Christmas present to be 200 by Christmas day.

I was banded on Nov 15 and so far have lost 21lbs! Good luck to you, it is definately a learning process, but definately worth it! From what I have learned and read every person is different, you have to take it day by day, pound by pound!

6 months out and loss of 51lbs :)

I was banded on 10/27 and have list 23 including what I lost in preop. Its definately been slow for me but I am cool with that. I also stalled on weight loss for almost two weeks when I went to mushies. Good luck to you! This was the best decision I ever made :)

I'm 4 months pot op and including pre op diet I have lost 56 lbs! I'm down 4 pants sizes!

banded on aug 22 so a little over three months down a total of 17 1/2 pounds

it's harder than you would think it would be but so worth it

As of the beginning of sept i have lost 51 pounds. I need to update my ticker!!!
